Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Climate change is caused by unconstrained human behavior. To cope with climate change, humans aim to achieve sustainable development. Climate change conferences achieve some good results, but they are insufficient. Whether they are carbon constraint policies proposed by INDCs, emissions trading, or other mechanisms, they do not seem to have achieved the desired results. At present, dozens of countries and regions have put forward the climate goal of "zero-carbon" or "carbon neutrality"; this may be another opportunity for the achievement of sustainable development. However, the rapid economic development of emerging market countries, global climate change, and the breakthrough development of renewable energy have led to significant changes in world patterns. How to evaluate the impact of current environmental policies and how to realize the transformation of the green energy economy are important and hot topics at present. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to:
- Trends and countermeasures of global macroeconomic operations under the framework of international cooperation on climate change.
- The impact of energy price system reform and the countermeasures.
- Environmental governance policy and structural economic reforms.
- Environmental management and policy innovation in the context of big data.
- Green finance and carbon finance in the "post-COVID-19 era".
